Meng Ying sneered. “Are you scared? I was just warming up. Why don’t you play with me again?”

“No, no, no…” They begged for mercy.

If this continued, they would die here.

Not only did Zhang Wei’s eyes hurt, but he was also kicked a few times by Meng Ying. He twitched on the ground, staining his gorgeous clothes with grass and mud. It was not a look a young master would have.

He had even cried.

“Meng Ying, let us go. We’ll apologize to you. We won’t do it again.” Zhang Wei was in pain from her kick, and he felt like his bones had fallen apart.

“That’s right, that’s right. We won’t dare to do it again,” Zhou Yang begged. “As long as you let us go, we’ll listen to you from now on.”

After what Meng Ying did just now, they were more in fear than in pain.

Most men have fantasized about having powerful martial arts since they were young. Although they had learned some self-defense skills, they were completely useless in front of Meng Ying.

A great man knew when to yield and when not. There was nothing to be ashamed of.

Rather than saying that they were afraid of being beaten again, it was more accurate to say that they were impressed by Meng Ying’s fighting skills.

Meng Ying knew that it was illegal to kill people in this world, so she took that idea out of her head.

Moreover, this place belonged to her now. It would be inauspicious if someone died here.

She was satisfied since they had begged for mercy and said that they were willing to listen to her.

She moved her leg away and stood at the side. “I’m glad that you know your place,” she glanced at them and said.

All of them stood up hurriedly. Zhang Wei’s eyes were not blind, but they were swollen.

He endured the pain and opened his eyes to look at Meng Ying. “Meng Ying, why are you so powerful? Why don’t you teach us a few moves too?”

People who knew how to fight were really cool.

Zhou Yang also looked at Meng Ying. He also wanted to learn a few moves from her.

Meng Ying took a quick look at all of them. “Do all of you want to be my disciple?”

“Yes!” They responded in unison.

“That will depend on your performance then.” Meng Ying crossed her arms and stuck her chest out arrogantly.

Zhou Yang immediately went up to her and started to flatter her. “Sister Yingying, I promise that we will listen to you from now on. You will also be our leader from now on. Just order us around, and we’ll do whatever you ask.”

Meng Ying asked, “What about you guys?”

Zhang Wei nodded vigorously. “We’ll be at your disposal, Sister Yingying.”

Meng Ying fixed her hair and bit her lip. She looked at the abandoned villa and then at the young masters. She suddenly had an idea.

“Alright, then help me do a few things.”

They quickly left after Meng Ying gave her instructions.

She was left alone in the huge villa.

A gust of wind blew. Weeds swayed and dark clouds covered the sky. The gloom of the villa grew.

Meng Ying walked in further. She wanted to confirm if the thing causing trouble here were ghosts or humans.

…

“Ninth Master, Madam has gone to Leaping Dragon Bay.”

Mu Yuansheng frowned. “Why didn’t you follow her?”

Ah Da felt wronged. “She won’t let me follow.”

“Find her.”

The weather had changed.

The wind was so strong that it made the trees rustle. Pedestrians on the road quickened their pace, and the dark clouds above the villas in Leaping Dragon Bay seemed to be thicker. Without lights, the atmosphere turned even more creepy.

Meng Ying listened to the wind. It sounded like a baby’s cry, but also like a ghost’s. Those who were timid would definitely piss their pants in fear if they were there.

Meng Ying wore a white dress, looking like a female ghost who couldn’t find her way back.

She stood in the doorway of the last mansion, staring up the stairs. “Come on out,” she said, smirking.

Again, the only response she got was the sound of the wind.

“If you are not coming out, I’ll go look for you.” Meng Ying smiled and walked into the villa.

It was pitch dark inside, and the sound of the wind could be heard. It was extremely creepy.

Meng Ying’s footsteps were light, and there was a smile in her voice. “Don’t play tricks in my territory. I’ll turn you into a real ghost if you get caught by me.”

Suddenly, something flashed behind her.

Meng Ying turned around but there was nothing.

Something else fluttered from the corner of her eye and went upstairs.

Meng Ying narrowed her eyes and her smile remained. “Human or ghost, come out and meet me.”

Again, the only response she got was the sound of the wind.

Suddenly, she felt a weight on her shoulder. She reacted quickly and grabbed it. The texture of it was slippery, like a loach.

She glanced at her hands. They were stained with blood.

There was a handprint on her shoulder.

Meng Ying smelled it and laughed. “Chicken blood?”

Suddenly, she rushed up to the third floor. She looked around and her gaze landed on a pile of rocks.

The stones were of different sizes and formed a wall that was half the height of a person.

Meng Ying walked over slowly. “There you are. I’ll let you know what human blood tastes like.”

Her smile faded as she darted forward and grabbed the person inside.

When she saw who it was, the corners of her eyes twitched.

A beggar?

“Were you the one who caused the rumors?” Meng Ying lifted the beggar up. He was as skinny as a monkey, obviously malnourished.

“Why aren’t you scared?” The skinny monkey asked.

Meng Ying laughed mockingly. “This is my territory. Why should I be scared? Humans or ghosts, whoever dares to stand in my way of getting rich shall die. I say, kid, I don’t care why you wanted to scare people in the past, but now, this place is mine. Leave, or I’ll call the police.”

“I won’t leave.” The young man in dirty clothes stared at Meng Ying. “Kill me if you dare.”

Meng Ying narrowed her eyes. “Do you think I don’t dare?”

The young man was not afraid at all.

Those eyes were unusually determined.

“Heh, interesting. It’s been a long time since I’ve met someone who’s not afraid of death.”

Meng Ying stopped laughing and reached out to grab his throat, lifting him to the balcony on the third floor. “If you’re lucky, you’ll only be crippled if you fall. If you’re not, you’ll die instantly. This place is haunted anyway…”

“No one will get suspicious about your death. They’ll think that you died from a ghost.”

As the wind blew, the young man’s frail body seemed as if it would fall off at any moment.

Finally, she saw panic in his eyes. He couldn’t die just like that!

“Ninth Master, it’s Madam!”

Ah Da and Mu Yuansheng walked in and saw Meng Ying hanging a person on the balcony.

Mu Yuansheng’s expression turned grave. “What are you doing?”

When Meng Ying heard this voice, she looked down and shouted happily, “Hubby!”

“Let go of him.” Mu Yuansheng was afraid that he would fall off if she let go.

This woman was really reckless.

Ah Da didn’t expect Meng Ying to be so bold. It was illegal to kill people in Yu City!

“Okay.” Meng Ying pulled the man back and let go.

She patted the young man’s chest and warned, “Kid, for the sake of my husband, I will spare you this once. From now on, you must leave this place immediately. Otherwise, even if my husband pleads for you, I will not let you off. Understand?”

“I’m not leaving.”

“You…” Meng Ying raised her hand.” Do you believe that I will beat you up? ”

The young man did not back down.

Meng Ying didn’t really mean her words. Because he seemed young, she thought that he must have met with some trouble, else he wouldn’t be here.

She asked, “Do you have something to do here?”
